Why is OSU ranked when they are banned from postseason play? Doesn't make any sense.
because the AP Poll's own policy is not to refuse a team from ranking only on the basis of a bowl ban
...which also could create a possibly messy potential scenario where the AP could awards a national championship that itself, a lot of the media, and (a lot of) fans still feel to be very legitimate to a team that can't even compete in the national title game
I don't remember USC being ranked last year, maybe I'm wrong
Ahh my bad didn't remember that.they were in the AP poll:
off and on in 2010
2010 NCAA Division I FBS football rankings - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
and they were in the 2011 poll high, late in the season
